heated pool, steps to beach

Your worries and cares don't stand a chance against the calm and serene decor of Salty Pirate. Come experience a stay like none you've ever experienced before. This spacious home has room for the entire family while, at the same time, giving everyone their own space. Each room flows one to the other with soothing colors and calming natural light everywhere. The ambiance you'll find here is unparalleled.

As you enter, be sure and check out the sunken dining and living area. The large dining table seats six and is conveniently located adjacent to the kitchen. The living area is full of comfy couches, a decorative fireplace, and a large screen TV. There's a smaller living area that can be used as a breakfast nook, a work nook, or a space to be by yourself and watch TV. Whimsical and tasteful art on the walls and a barn door give this room a special feel.

The kitchen is whimsical and modern with fish handles on the cabinets, stainless-steel appliances, and plenty of cooking utensils and dinnerware for everyone. Lots of counter space means you can cook up your dream meal here and have plenty of room to work.

The ensuite master bedroom boasts a beautiful matching bedframe, night tables, and chest of drawers. A large, walk-in closet with shelves means you have plenty of space for clothes and suitcases without tripping over anything. The ensuite bathroom has a gorgeous walk-in shower, plenty of storage space, and a beautiful countertop. Two other bedrooms downstairs are thoughtfully decorated with different accent colors and have matching furniture and large-screen TVs. There's a guest bath downstairs and a laundry room that doubles as a powder room.

Upstairs, you'll find another bathroom and two guest bedrooms. The first guest bedroom has wooden bunkbeds with drawers skillfully built into the steps leading to the upper bunk. Adjoining this great kid's room is a guest room with a queen bed, two closets, and lots of natural light pouring in. The upstairs bath has a combination tub/shower and plenty of storage space.

Now for your outdoor oasis. Picture this: a beautiful pergola featuring an outdoor table and chairs and lights for dining or playing board games at night. Nearby, a pool with crystal-clear water awaits you. Beyond the pool is a firepit with Adirondack chairs perfect for stories and a lesson in smores making. Nearby is a gas grill for wonderful backyard barbecues. Inside the garage, you'll find cornhole and all kinds of great beach gear such as boogie boards, a cooler on wheels, and four beach chairs. No need to worry about beach towels, you'll find twelve at the house waiting for you.

The Salty Pirate is waiting for you. Come experience all its whimsy, its outdoor oasis, and the incredible history you'll find in the oldest city in the nation. Book today for a vacation you'll never forget.

There are three restaurants that are almost within walking distance:

1) Aunt Kate's
2) The Reef
3) Cap's on the Water

Spring Break Trip
We went to St Augustine with our best friends and our kids and this house was wonderful. Plenty of space for everyone, the pool was heated and felt amazing even when it was chillier in the mornings or evenings. The proximity to the beach was wonderful just right across the street from an access . We had a wonderful time and highly recommend this property!

Spring Break 2024
We just loved our stay here. We were 6 adults, 2 children and an infant and our 2 pets. we were all very comfortable and the location was great. A short drive over the bridge and you were in St. Augustine. Boys in our group went to the TPC and that was also a very short drive. Beach was beautiful and just across the street, a very short walk. It was a great family vacation for all of us!

Beautiful property - great location just a few steps to the beach! Very clean and spacious. Had all the amenities we needed. The only downfall was the pool heater didn’t warm the pool quick enough to enjoy. Would definitely book this property again!

Visiting for a family wedding. Fabulous property and host. Host called to check on us and if we wanted the pool heated up since it was winter and the weekend was looking nice. Good amenities and cleanliness. I thought the hall bath had another shower ( I was looking for 3 since we had 8 adults) but it was a connected to the shower with the one master. The only unclear part of property description. Comfortable beds, gathering spots and great backyard for relaxing !!

We enjoyed our stay at the Salty Pirate. Our two dogs enjoyed the fenced in backyard. The swimming pool looked nice but was not the weather for that. Property was clean and well taken care of. We will definitely look to stay again when back in St. Augustine area.
